- To test your agility and balance, you will complete the "8 foot up-and-go test." For this test, you will sit in a chair facing a cone that marks exactly 8 feet from the chair. You will start the test sitting in the chair. When instructed to start, you will stand up and walk as fast as you can around the cone (without running or hitting the cone) and return to a fully seated position in the chair. You will repeat this test 2 times.
